"We can be heroes"...and make a difference in our world!

Giving Tuesday and Thanksgiving are just around the corner so our blog in the next week will be giving thanks! Our hearts are full of the love our community shared with Nyack Center at our Legacy Gala! It was a wonderful evening honoring Donna Cox, Susan Wilmink and Thomas Schneck to benefit our beloved Nyack Center! Thank you to Steve Canal and family, Better Homes and Gardens Rand Realty, Docuware, Christopher St. Financial, and R2M Realty and all our sponsors, Festoon and Kristina Burns, our amazing board, staff and community of support. It was our most successful gala to date!

​One of the wonderful things that happened at our Legacy Gala was the presentation of the first annual Jo and Peter Baer "I made a difference" Legacy Scholarship. The award is meant to aknowledge and inspire young people to follow in the footsteps of our wonderful supporters Jo and Peter Baer. The award was created by and presented by Kelly Baer Mayhew and her sister Barbara Baer to Shantel Sellers.

Adorable photography from the Gala festival that would be exciting and enjoyable moments of the teachers, students and for parents as well. I’m sure all the students and everyone who participate they enjoy here a lot and spend quality time.

Congratulations for having such as successful legacy gala! It is obvious from the pictures that you had a wonderful night. I like the message that you are trying to spread, 'everyone can make a difference' - that is such an inspiring line. No matter how young a person is, he / she can still make a difference to build a better community. As a young person, I believe that I can contribute to make a difference, to make changes for the better. Continue spreading your wonderful advocacy!
